PPT97: Macro Recorder Doesn't Record Changes to Options Dialog (162856)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft PowerPoint 97 for Windows
This article was previously published under Q162856 SYMPTOMS
If you make changes in the Options dialog box (click Options on the Tools
menu) while you are recording a macro, the changes are not recorded.
CAUSE
The PowerPoint macro recorder does not record mouse clicks or keystrokes.
It attempts to analyze these actions and then create equivalent Microsoft
Visual Basic for Applications code. The settings in the Options dialog box
do not have a Visual Basic equivalent. Hence, the macro recorder does not
record these actions.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft PowerPoint 97 for
Windows. We are researching this problem and will post new information here
as it becomes available.
